Hi all- I was sleeved on July 9th, so I am about 6 weeks post op. I lost 22 lbs from week 1-5, but this last week (maybe two weeks actually) the scale has not budged!! Today, I even gained a lbs. How is this possible? I am tracking my calories with MyFitnessPal, and I can barely even finish any of the things I prepare, so my caloric intake is actually LESS than what I'm recording. I have started riding my bike again, and walking. I used to do NOTHING everyday, so this increase in activity is monumental, and theoretically should boost my metabolism. I am 34, so is my metabolism just shot now? Is this a thyroid thing? I've had my thyroid tested before, and the levels were normal. In the past when I have lost weight (I have lost around 70 lbs before, multiple times, and just put it back on) I would never plateau. I would lose a steady 2-5 lbs per week.

What AM I wrong????!!!

I'm so frustrated!!!

Is this a duplicate thread?

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
